I. A mixture of sleet and freezing rain transitioned mostly to freezing rain during the overnight and many across central Indiana are waking up to a significant “glaze” this morning (.2″ to .3″).  Power outages are growing and travel is tricky in spots.  If you don’t have to travel, please remain indoors.

An Ice Storm Warning remains in place until 12p, followed by a Winter Weather Advisory until 7p.

After a “lull” in the precipitation, a burst of light snow will develop this afternoon into the early evening hours before dry conditions return tonight.

II. As we look ahead, our next weather system will scoot into the region over the weekend. This will be a weak event and we only expect a light mixture of snow and rain Saturday evening.

III. The balance of Thanksgiving week looks rather quiet, but chilly, thanks to high pressure.  The stretch of below to well below normal temperatures will continue, overall.

IV. As we look ahead, the pattern sure looks cold and stormy as we open December.  On that note, the majority of data continues to trend colder for the month of December, as a whole, and with high latitude blocking in place, we’d expect to see an active storm track across the country.  If you like it cold and active for the holidays, you just might be in luck this year… More on that later!
